Bible Facts.

The learned Prince of Granada, heir to
the Spanish throne, was imprisoned in
the Place of Skurls, Madrid. After
thirty-three years in this living tomb,
he wrote in his Bible the following:
In the Bible the word Lord is found I, :
853 times, the word jehovah 5,852 times
and the word Reverend but once, ant
that in the 9th verse Of the CXIth Psalm.
The 9th verse of the CxYIIth is the
middle verse of the Bible. The 9th verse
of the With chapter of Esther is the
longestverse;; 35th verse, XIth chapter of
st. John is the shortest. In the CxYII til
Psalm four verses are alike, the 9Th,
18th, 2Ist and 3Ist. Each verse of the
CXXXYIth Psalm ends alike. No
name or words with more than six sylla-
bles are found in the Bible. The Xxx
XyIIth CHI. of Isaih and XIXth chapter
Of I'd Kings are alike. The word girl
occurs but once in the Bible, and that in
the ard verse and IIIrd chapterOf Joel.
There are found in both books Of the
Bible 1886, 483 letters, 773, 6o3 words, 3I,-
273 verses 1880 chapters, and SIS books.
The xviii chapter of the Acts Of
the Apostles is the finest chapter to read
The most beautiful chapter in the
Bible is the XXIIIth Psalm. The four
most inspiring promises are John XIYth
chapter and I'd verse, John With chap
ter and 37th verse, st. Matthew XIth
chapter and 18th verse, and XXXVIIth
Psalm, 4th verse. The first verse ofthe
LXth chapter of Isaiah is the one for
the new convert. All who hatter them
selves with vain boastings Of their per-
fectness should learn the With of Mat
thew.

Rev. Andrew Longacre, pastor Of
Mountyernon M. e. Church, Baltimore,
gave another of his familiar talks on
questionable amusements. He selected
FsDancing." He said that a clergyman
in New York who had investigated the
subject assured him that 10 out of every
20 Of the women whom the world calls
fallen had met their misfortune through
round dancing.
TO show the spirit in which the Roman
Catholic Church has always regarded
this form Of amusement, Rev. DIR. Long
acre read from the DEGREES of the sec
ond plenary council of Baltimore, which
was held in 1867. The text warned the
people against those fashionable
dances which as at present carried on
are revolving to every feeling Of moral
ity. Two years later" continued Rev.
DIR. Longacre, the clergy of the same
council deemed it necessary to meet
again and issued another warning to
their people. The growing popularity
of the immoral dance called the ger
man. they said, calls for an EN-
phatic protest against every species of
round dancing"
DR.. Longacre continued: This species
ofdancing has been denounced not only
by the ministers of every denomination
but the Scriptures and experience cry
out against it to. We cannot participate
in such acts without dazzling the eye
and exciting the passion. The warning
above quoted is the more importent be-
cause ii comes from body of ministers
who have closer access to their people
than any class of divines. / am sure
that the dress of our women of late
rather tends to increase the danger than
to lesson it. Rose E. Cleveland, of
New York, says that dancing is con-
demned both by the New Testiment and
our experience. I am sorry to have to
say that the waltz has been the cause of
nearly all the domestic infelicity with
which we have been confronted In the
past few years.
Cicero said No man in his senses
will dance, I cannot but think that
those who habitually 60 to parties lose
all fondness for religious services. The
house which containeS dancing par1or
never has room for prayer. What shall
we do for evening enjoyment? Cultivate
a higher taste. Let our delight be
rather brilliant and refined CONVEX
sation. Do not engage in things that
should occupy children. Dancing re-
quires no brains.
AS we develop our tastes do we not
espouse music and her kindred arts and
acquire fine manners? AS long as peo-
pie are taken with cards and dancing
just so long will there be little hope Of
higher and more widely distributed
culture.
The frightful prevalence of drunken
ness and the enormus increase in the
drink-trafic can no more be ignored as
a civil weston than as moral one, !

Martinsburg gazette. (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1886-1887, 1887-03-04

CAPITAL AND LABOR Colonel Inger-
sol, on the antagonism of capital and
labor, says Here is shoeshop. One
man is always busy at work during the
day-a1ways industrious. In the even
ing he goes counting some good, nice
girl. There are FIVE in the shop who
don't do any such thing. They spend
half their working hours in 1oafng,
and their evenings in dissipation. The
first young man by and by cuts out these
others, and gets boot and shoe store
of his own. Then he marries the girl.
Soon he is able to take his wife out to
ride of an evening. The FIVE laboreres,
his former companions, who see him in
dulging in this luxury, retire to saloon
and pass resolution that there is an
eternal struggle between labor and CAPT
tai.

Crazy.

On Monday Frank Powell, who
is about 10 or 90 years old, came to
Dawson and created some excite
ment on the streets He is insane
on The subject of religion and pro.
tessed to be able to save the world,
if he can only get the worldto look
him in the eye. He tried his
hand on some of the boys but we
think gave them up as hard cases.
DIR. Kendrick, who examined him,
says that he is undoubtedly insane
and that if he was sent to the asy.
lum now there would be some
chance of his being restored.
He seems to he as innocent and
harmless now as child, but there
is no telling how long he will re-
main thus. He may grow worse
and in that case it would be dan
gerous for him to travel about
the country alone.

Nothing "Cool" About It.

We said nothing that was detri,

der any circumstances. We mere
ly said that orr officers were not
treated with the courtesy that is
customarily rendered under such
circumstances.
We published the facts as we
understood them, and il there
were any mistakes we did not in.
tend them. We think that, per.
haps, Brother Gum was somewhat
misinformed as to the following:
"Mr. Smith showed the teIe-
gram to our Marshals and they
were on the lookout for the negro
al day."
If the Editor of The Liberal will
ask City Marshall Staunton if he
was shown che telegram and he
says yes, then we are as silent as

Mr.. Staunton told, not only our
